Damn! I reached the pinnacle of life with the help of the rich system
Chapter 18 Signing, Tomato Company!
When Xu Yan got up, she didn't notice any message on her computer. She only found it after she finished breakfast and went upstairs.
"It's company-related matters sent by Ferniga." Xu Yan saw that there were 24 pages. Thinking that there was nothing to do in the morning, she sat cross-legged on the bed, put a folding table in front of her, put the computer on the table and started reading.
"I naively thought it was his unique taste..." Xu Yan had just looked at it for a while when her cell phone rang.
"Hello? Hello." Xu Yan was not familiar with this phone number.
"Hello, are you Ms. Yuliang, the author of Swamp Forbidden Zone?" The person asking was an editor from the company that owns the writing platform. At first, I wanted to call her Mr., but when I found out that she was a girl, I changed my words to Ms.
"Yes, it's me. May I ask who you are?" Xu Yan still didn't stop looking inside and kept talking. Although it was a rhetorical question, Xu Yan could still guess from where the call came after thinking about it.
"I'm Gu Xianggu, editor of Fanxiang Editing Agency, an editing agency affiliated with Tomato Company. I'm calling to discuss the signing of the Swamp Restricted Area with you. Is it convenient for you now?"
"I have something else to do right now. I'll call you back when the time comes, okay?"
Xu Yan couldn't do two things at once. After making an appointment with Gu Xiang, she hung up the phone and continued to read messages.
"Ahh~ I finally finished reading it." Xu Yan stood up and stretched her body. It was all in English. Fortunately, the system rewarded her with proficiency in English. Although it took some time to translate, she could basically understand it.
"Isn't it true that it is a big company? Although there are only seven Disney companies in China, the annual profit is solid."
Xu Yan estimated that even if she did nothing, the share she could get every year from the shares rewarded by the system would be an astonishing amount.
Since Xu Yan and Gu Xiang had an appointment at 2 p.m., they were supposed to discuss the contract face to face, but they were not in the same city, so they could only do it over the phone.
"Xu Yan, come down for dinner!"
Xu Yun called out from the stairs.
"Oh, here it comes!"
Xu Yan went downstairs. "What are we having for dinner today?" Xu Yan looked at the plate that Xu's mother brought out. "Braised eggplant, sweet and sour pork, and stir-fried cauliflower with minced meat."
"Here, there's this." Xu Jun opened the plastic box. "Mom knows you like roast duck and its sauce, so I bought it especially for you."
"Great! They are all my favorite dishes!" Xu Yan quickly washed her hands and sat down to eat.
"Eat whatever you want to eat, so don't refuse to eat this or that in the future." Xu Jun looked at Xu Yan with a coercive look.
"I just don't like eating onions, it's not a big deal." Xu Yan defended herself. "What about fish?" "It's troublesome to pick bones!" "You're really not smart."
Xu Yan looked at Xu Jun with gritted teeth, looking disgruntled.
"Okay, okay, sisters, be quiet." Father Xu said while eating rice.
"cut."
"What are you cutting? I'm still busy." Xu Jun rolled his eyes.
Xu Yan didn't want to pay attention to Xu Yun. She turned around and saw Xu's mother wiping her sweat. The kitchen was relatively closed, the space was small and the air was not circulating. Moreover, Xu's mother also had a herniated disc.
"Let's go get a massage tonight. There are many famous massage parlors in Shanghai, but I haven't tried any yet."
Xu Yan suddenly said that she had never been to a massage parlor, as she had taught herself massage before, and she also wanted to experience the feeling of having her feet massaged.
"That's fine." Xu Jun agreed. Xu Yan saw that Xu's father and mother were unpredictable.
"Go ahead, go ahead. I'm the one spending the money, not you. Just think of it as the money for last meal, Mom and Dad."
How could Xu's father and mother not understand Xu Yan's kindness? "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. When the time comes, you can choose a store and your dad can drive us there."
......
It was time for Xu Yan to wash the dishes at noon. "What a pity, the space is too small to fit a dishwasher, otherwise everyone wouldn't have to wash dishes." Xu Yan complained. After washing the dishes, Xu Yan picked up her phone and transferred 30,000 yuan to Xu's father and mother.
The two of them sent messages almost at the same time, basically saying that there was no need to give them money, and there was no need to give so much, and that they should spend their own money.
Xu Yan: Don't worry, Mom and Dad. This money is within our means. We are going to support you anyway. What's the difference between supporting you now and later?
Xu's father and mother fell silent, and then transferred another 50,000 yuan to Xu Yun. Xu Yun was an art student, so he spent more money. What's more, Xu Yun himself had a loan of 20,000 yuan - the family had no working capital, so Xu Yun had to pay for his tuition by taking out a loan himself.
Xu Yun: Why are you giving me so much? Do you really want me to buy you a villa in the future?
Xu Yan: A dog can't spit out ivory. Don't worry, I can still support you. When you need to eat and spend, just come to me. Mom and Dad have hundreds of thousands of dollars that they haven't paid back, and they owe others tens of thousands of dollars. Before, when you said you wanted to buy an iPad, mom said she would lend you money to buy it. We have already spent a lot of money to open the store. In the future, come to me to spend money, sister. I have money.
Xu Yun: Now that I’ve grown up, I have money to spend on my family.
Xu Yan: rolling eyes.jpg.
Xu Yun: Don’t worry, when I run out of money, the first person I’ll look for will be you.
Xu Yan: Ok, I promise to take you to live in a big villa.
Xu Yun: That’s not realistic.
Xu Yan did not reply. After returning to her room and turning on the air conditioner to take a nap, the system issued a voice: [The host is rewarded 5 million yuan. Please check it carefully. I hope the host will keep up the good work! ]
"Did I do anything, system?" Xu Yan asked it. She didn't complete the task either. Xu Yan was puzzled. Seeing that the system ignored her, she stopped thinking about it and lay down to sleep.
The latest sentence written in the system’s own little notebook is: If filial piety is detected, the host must be rewarded hehehe.
It was the system that woke her up at almost two o'clock, and it was the cell phone ringtone that the system played for her that woke her up.
At first when Xu Yan was woken up, she thought she had set the alarm, but when she took out her phone, she found no sign of an alarm.
"Have you heard hallucinations?"
"No, host, I played your ringtone because you had an appointment with the editor Gu Xiang from Fanxiang Editorial Office to call at two o'clock, and it's almost two o'clock now."
As soon as the system finished speaking, a real cell phone ringtone rang.
"Hello? Ms. Yuliang, do you remember me? I called you this morning."
"I remember, Editor Gu Xiang, right? Now it's the agreed time, aren't you going to talk about the contract?"
"Yes, yes, that's right. The company sent me to talk to you about the contract." Gu Xiang opened the contract and took a look at it, then continued, "It's like this. The company detected that your novel data is very good, and it's your first new book. I would like to ask if you have any writing experience before?"
"I used to write BL novels, but I won't reveal the specific title of the book." Xu Yan didn't feel embarrassed.
"So you are a famous Danmei lady? Are you still writing this kind of novels now?" Gu Xiang is not unfamiliar with the Danmei circle. After all, she is also an editor, and some of the authors she works with also write Danmei.
"I don't write anymore. I write BL fan fiction, but I don't pay attention to it now, so I don't have any inspiration."
Xu Yan thought about it and realized that she had written it in the beginning because she was interested in it, and it was quite popular, but then the popularity faded and she lost interest in the entertainment industry, so she never wrote again.
"What a pity, but Ms. Yu, can I call you by your pen name?" Gu Xiang often liked to call people by their pen names, because this way she felt that those "authors" had truly come into this world.
"OK."
"So, the electronic signature system on the platform is for general authors, but because of your high fame, the company will sign a bronze signature for you. Do you agree?" In fact, it is reasonable to give a silver signature, but Gu Xiang cannot decide. The superiors also said that if the other party asks for a silver signature, then give it, but if a bronze signature is enough, then sign the bronze one.
Xu Yan didn't quite understand the level of this contract, but
"Said he wanted to sign the silver signature!"
If even the system says so, then it must be correct.
"Editor Gu, you know my book has received good reviews. Is the copper coin a little low?"
"So what do you want?" Gu Xiang felt confident.
"Silver sign? Is that okay?"
Gu Xiang almost clapped. She was also reading Xu Yan's Swamp Forbidden Zone. It was a good work with an increasing number of readers. It was considered very popular among newcomers. If it was longer, it might even be remade.
"Of course, let's build up each other's prestige. I'll give you the silver contract when the time comes. If your work is better in the future, I'll upgrade it to a gold contract."
"Then trouble you."
"No trouble, no trouble."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Yan exhaled, "Is there any difference between the gold signature and the silver signature in this system?"
"According to the information I have collected, there are indeed different levels of book contracts. For example, ordinary authors sign contracts based on a certain number of words, and enjoy dividends based on the number of words they write and the number of readers. However, this level of contract is different. Not only do you have traffic, but you can also participate in many company activities and get dividends. The difference lies in your status."
"Wow, you also know your status, that's amazing." Xu Yan exclaimed.
"okay I know."
After a while, Gu Xiang sent the contract to Xu Yan. All matters related to the contract were listed on it. In fact, anyone who writes knows more or less about Fan Xiang. There are also many writers with millions of fans, including but not limited to history, ancient stories, modern stories, sweet pets, domineering bosses, no CP, etc., but the most popular ones are ancient stories, modern stories, and suspense. They have a lot of traffic, many readers, and people love to read them, so the probability of being made into movies and TV series is also high.
As for Tomato Company, although the name is a bit funny, it is not funny. Tomato Company has departments related to film and television, entertainment industry, journalism, and literature. The actors under its umbrella are all very popular, including five best actor and actress winners. The boy band and girl band launched now are also very popular. It can be said that it is an entertainment company with unlimited popularity, but this entertainment company is just an entertainment branch under Tomato Company, so it can be said that Tomato Company is the leader.
Xu Yan sent the contract to Shen Xuejie. After all, she was not a professional, so it was no problem for her to read it herself. Ten minutes later, Shen Xuejie replied:
"There's nothing wrong with the contract. The only thing that's unreasonable is the termination fee. The contract was signed with a silver signature, so if you want to terminate the contract, you have to pay two million in termination fees. Generally speaking, it's a bit high, but since it's Fan Xiang, it should be this price."
After reading it, one person posted a paragraph: "In fact, for a big company like this, especially a well-known one, there is probably nothing wrong with the contract."
Xu Yan replied OK and told Gu Xiang that the contract could be signed. By the time all the formalities were completed, half an hour had passed.
Gu Xiang: Then I would like to welcome Miss Xu here. Come to my place sometime and I will treat you to a meal.
Xu Yan: Okay, whenever I need to go on a business trip to your place, I will definitely come over.
Gu Xiang: It’s settled then. I’ll get busy now.
Xu Yan: Okay, bye.
Gu Xiang: goodbye.jpg
